...Gees. Yes, these are all talented artists. I grew up listening to Michael Jackson; Joni Mitchell appears frequently on my iPod's playlists; and "Stayin' Alive's" opening line, "You can tell by the way I use my walk I'm a woman's man, no time to talk" is probably the most badass use of falsetto I've ever heard.

Olyphant's Givens is less rigid and more likable, but his sense of duty also comes from a very personal and dark place. There's a remarkable scene in the pilot in which he uses the threat of his quick draw to talk down a thug with a shotgun pointed at Givens' head - "Can you rack in a load before I put a hole through you?" - which left me with a thorough man crush on him.

...true, but coal mining is not going away anytime soon. More than one-third of the coal burned in the U.S. is mined in the central Appalachian Mountains, which stretch from Tennessee to Ohio, and nearly half of the electricity used by Americans is powered by coal. Despite ongoing talk of a new clean energy economy - "Whoever builds a clean energy economy...is going to own the 21st-century global economy," President Barack Obama said at a meeting of governors in Washington in February - coal is too plentiful in the U.S. to be abandoned. The International Energy Agency projects that...
